Like I said let me finish the book... :o) but apparently our program has mutated... soon the other software may fail altogether.. on our Canucky platform...

I think this has more to do with the differences we are beginning to experience and we all do business quite well together... mostly in English :o)

The German contingent happened to become the largest. This is confirmed by the 1990 Census, according to which more Americans claim German "ancestry or ethnic origin" than any other: 57.9 million (23.3%). In comparison, 38.7 million (15.6%) claim Irish ancestry, 32.7 million (13.1%) English, 23.8 million (9.6%) Afro-American, 14.7 million (5.9%) Italian, and smaller numbers for other groups. I dunno I think this means a lot more than language....

Canada is undergoing considerable demographic change that is marked by the growing strength of non-European cultures and languages. On the basis of ethnic origins there has been a significant increase in recent years in the non-European population while those of Canadian, British, French and other European backgrounds have experienced little overall growth.

In 1996 the number of persons with European origin mother tongues exceeded those with non European mother tongues by over 600 000 persons. Some five years later the number of persons with European origin mother tongues just barely maintained its lead over the non European mother tongues. Between 1996 and 2001 while European heritage languages rose by 2%, those persons with non-European mother tongues increased by nearly 30% over that same period.
